Auschwitz & Birkenau

After many hours of traveling and seeing Krakow, today was a very somber one. Another day to rise early and then took the bus to Auschwitz. We all took a tour of the Auschwitz Muzeum, thinking about those that we lost and always remembering to NEVER FORGET. From there we went over to Auschwitz II (Birkenau) where we walked the grounds of the camp, thinking of those that came before us and knowing how we all have the freedom to walk in and out of the gates at will when our ancestors didn't have the choice. An exhausting, but such an important day to take in for ourselves and witness first hand of the atrocities of the Holocaust and may the memory of those lost be a blessing.
